Depending on how long you’ve known them, you may have exhausted all of your present ideas.
But not to worry!
We’ve filled this gift guide with our favorite gifts for a 70-year-old woman who has everything.
And, we’ve tried to stay away from the purely practical gift, as we think you should be thinking about meaningful gifts, a special gift that comes from the heart and are barely related to their age at all!

We hope you find some ideas that you hadn’t thought of, and more importantly, find a gift that you’re excited to give.
We’ve split this gift guide up into three categories, to hopefully make it easier to find the perfect gift:

Home Gifts
SWEEJAR 3 Tier Ceramic Cake Stand
If you know a seventy-year-old that loves to bake, entertain, and feed the masses, this gorgeous cake tier stand is the perfect present.
You could even deliver it filled with some of your own home-baked goods, such as cakes, finger sandwiches, strawberries, and chocolates! Just don’t forget to bring the ice cream too!
Metal 6 Tier Flower Plant Stand Shelf
This ornate garden plant stand can be used indoors or outdoors and is perfect for making the most of small spaces. You can stack up to six potted plants on this stand, making it a great way to utilize a balcony or patio.
We love the detail within the metal and especially how the white contrasts with the colors in the plants. It’s an ideal gift for any plant lover and a great idea to naturally liven up a boring room
Wine Country Gift Baskets
Wine Country Gift Baskets are a high-quality brand that your loved ones, colleagues, or friends will love. Their gift baskets are hand assembled and include some of the top brand-named ingredients that are tried and trusted by the masses.
This particular gift basket is filled with everything from crackers, cookies, to an assortment of sweets.
Breville Vertuo Coffee and Espresso Machine
This stylish machine makes it easy to create barista-grade brewed single-serve coffee or espresso cups at home, at the touch of a single button. (Be aware that it’s designed for use with Nespresso Vertuo capsules only.) While this may seem like an unusual gift for an older woman, its an ideal choice for anyone who wants to make coffee the easy way.
KitchenAid Stand Mixer
Make cooking easier with this KitchenAid highly-rated stand mixer. It’s easy to use and perfect for making cakes, bread, cookies, pastry, muffins, and waffles. This kitchen item is a classic you cannot go wrong with, and can be passed down in the family. I still have my Grandmother’s mixer! Wer’e not saying that you should be buying elderly women gifts with the inheritance in mind, but instead just touting it’s quality! This is one of the most popular gifts for any avid baker and will make their special day all that more special.

Beauty Gifts
Bath and Body Gift Basket
There is nothing like a vanilla therapy bath, especially if you can pair it with a luxurious robe (hint, hint. See below)! This spa gift basket has everything a woman needs (as long as they like the smell of coconut and vanilla!). It contains a Shower Gel, Bubble Bath, Body Scrub, Body Oil, 2 Large Bath Bombs, Bath Salt, plus a Bath Towel.
Bathtub Pillow for Neck and Shoulder: Spa Bathroom Accessories
There’s nothing worse than the perfect bath being ruined by an uncomfortable ridge digging into your neck and shoulders. This bathtub pillow elevates the experience of a relaxing bath and transports you from your bathroom to a luxury spa. Warning: This may promote spending a long time in the bath and overwhelming relaxation!
Richie House Women’s Plush Soft Warm Fleece Bathrobe
Stay warm in the colder months with this gorgeously soft full-length dressing gown. Whether she prefers bright colors, light tones, or a darker look, there are plenty of colors and patterns to choose from. One reviewer called it “A robe fit for royalty!”
Women’s Soft Pashmina Shawl or Wrap
This gorgeous multi-wear wrap comes in tons of beautiful designs to suit any stylish ladies’ wardrobe. It’s perfect for wrapping up on summer evenings, or as a fashionable accessory throughout the colder months.
We think it looks super luxurious for the price point, and even though it probably isn’t pure silk (like the listing suggests), it definitely is worth the money.
Unusual Gifts and Unique Gifts for A 70-Year-Old Woman
Victrola 8-in-1 Bluetooth Record Player & Multimedia Center
The perfect fusion for the older generation to mix their childhood and with their more recent years.
With a gorgeous vintage style and cool modern features, this turntable not only plays their vinyls, but also any treasured CD’s, cassette, FM radio stations, Bluetooth, aux, and headphone jack! This is the next best thing to having a full-scale recording studio in their house!
The perfect accessory to a living room, kitchen, or bedroom for a woman who loves her music.
Tablet Floor Stand – Lamicall Gooseneck Tablet Holder Mount
Obviously, this one only applies if they already have a tablet that they like to use, but it makes it hands-free and easier on the neck and eyes.
Simply secure the tablet in place for hands-free scrolling whether you’re cooking, on the sofa, or in bed. This is also a great accessory if they make video calls to their friends or family members.
Shiatsu Foot Massager
Treat their feet with this super luxurious and relaxing at-home massage treatment. This is one of the best gift ideas for older adults, especially those who are constantly on their feet.
This foot, ankle, and leg massager uses a deep-kneading Shiatsu technique to improve blood circulation, reduce inflammation, stimulate muscle recovery, provide pain relief, or offer pure and thorough relaxation after a long day.
Set of 9 Real Wax Pillar Decorative Led Fake Candles with Remote Control
Real wax LED candles are a gift from the Gods. They look super realistic and many of them even flicker like a real candle.
The great thing about them is that they last forever, look great as part of displays, and they are super safe!
This is perfect with grandkids running around. And let’s face it, people of a certain age might be prone to forgetting they lit a candle.
Edge Wine Glasses
Sophisticated, stunning, and luxurious. A unique gift idea that is guaranteed to impress.
Sperry Top-Sider Women’s Saltwater Boots
This duck-inspired waterproof boot might look slightly odd, but we think it’s the perfect gift for a woman who loves walking, hiking, or spending time in the garden. Its zip closure is perfect for easy grip and closing the boot, and a fleece-lining keeps feet warm and cozy.
